My journey to Konoha

"It's okay, please step back."

"Yes." The guard retreated. "Be careful not to get angry when you are so excited." Chu Yue appeared at the same place again.

"Really..." Naraku held his forehead, "You guys, do you want me to return to Ghost Spider so much?"

"It's not that I want you to turn back into Ghost Spider," Chu Yue said, "I'm just testing your heart. That's your true nature as Ghost Spider."

"Is it my heart..." Naraku whispered.

Chu Yue smiled. "Humph, even if that's the case, so what?"

"It's okay." Chu Yue said, "I won't talk to you anymore, I'm leaving." Chu Yue walked towards the door and suddenly turned back, "By the way, if you want to repair your body, you can use witchcraft." After that, Chu Yue opened the door and left.

"Why open the door if you can just disappear..." Naraku muttered, looking up at the roof. "Witchcraft?"

...

On the other side, Chu Yue arrived at Di Nian'er's house before Inuyasha and others. "This should be it." Chu Yue approached and looked around at the herbs. "Excuse me, who are you?" Di Nian'er's mother saw Chu Yue coming and asked.

"My name is Chu Yue." Chu Yue said, "I heard that there are abundant herbs here, so I came here to ask for some."

"Herbs?"

"Yes." Chu Yue nodded, "Is it okay?"

"Oh, yeah." Di Nian'er's mother was surprised that Chu Yue was not here to cause trouble, and nodded in agreement. "What's wrong, mother?" Di Nian'er walked out of the house and saw her mother talking to Chu Yue.

"No, Di Nian'er, go back!" Di Nian'er's mother shouted immediately.

"Ah!" Di Nian'er immediately retracted her head when she saw Chu Yue. Chu Yue was stunned for a moment...

"Hey!" Di Nian'er's mother looked at Chu Yue, confused, thinking that Chu Yue was afraid of Di Nian'er and was hesitant. Unexpectedly, Chu Yue responded:

“Is that your child?”

Di Nian'er's mother was stunned.

"Huh? Isn't it?" Chu Yue asked with a smile.

"No, yes, it is true..." Di Nian'er's mother came back to her senses.

"Well, it's quite similar to you." Chu Yue said with a smile.

"Ah? Really?" Di Nian'er's mother was delighted when she heard this. After all, although she and Di Nian'er were mother and son, Di Nian'er's father was a demon, and Di Nian'er was a half-demon, so his appearance was very different from that of a human. Therefore, this praise might be the first time she had heard it...

Afterwards, Chu Yue successfully entered the house, met Di Nian'er, and talked with Di Nian'er's family for a while. It was not until Di Nian'er's mother remembered that Chu Yue came to look for spiritual herbs.

"Chu Yue, what kind of spiritual herb do you need?" Di Nian'er asked.

"Hmm...are there any poisonous weeds?"

"Ah?" Di Nian'er and his mother were both stunned.

"Uh... don't get me wrong. You already know that I have traveled a lot and have many friends. There are all kinds of people in the world. One of them was covered with poisonous grass." Chu Yue made up a story, "He was injured and needed to use poisonous grass to heal his wounds."

"So that's it..." Di Nian'er and his mother suddenly realized, and then felt a little embarrassed, "However, we only have healing herbs here, no poisonous herbs..."

"I see..." Chu Yue pretended to be disappointed, then returned to normal, "It's okay, I didn't have high expectations..." As soon as the voice fell, Chu Yue felt something was wrong, "That... I mean, my friend is actually fine, and has a strong self-healing ability. I just want to see if I can find some herbs to speed up his recovery, hehe..."

"So that's how it is..." Di Nian'er and his mother nodded again.

This made Chu Yue feel quite embarrassed...

After walking for a while, Chu Yue met some villagers, and they immediately noticed him. Chu Yue was wearing strange clothes, which naturally attracted attention.

"Excuse me, who are you?" a villager came forward and asked.

"Oh, I am a monk." Chu Yue replied, "It is getting late, I hope to stay in this village for one night."

"So you are a monk." The villager said, "If you don't mind, you can stay in my house for a while."

"Of course I don't mind." Chu Yue smiled, "Of course, if there is anything I can help with, please let me know."

The villagers did not take Chu Yue's polite words to heart and led him to their home.

However, during dinner, a villager brought up something.

"Master Monk, a villager in our village was attacked by a monster the day before yesterday..."

"Oh?" Chu Yue said immediately, "Please tell me as much as possible."

"Yes." The villagers nodded. "The day before yesterday, he went into the mountains to cut wood, but he didn't return at night. Everyone was very worried, but they didn't dare to go alone, so the villagers went into the mountains together to look for him, and the result was..."

"How is the result?"

"In the end, we only found the man's remains... and they were completely eaten away..."

"A man-eating monster?" Chu Yue pondered for a moment, "I have something else to do tomorrow and need to leave, but since your village is in trouble, if possible, I will leave after dealing with the monster."

“Really? Thank you so much.” The villager said gratefully.

"No, it's just a small matter." Chu Yue responded with a smile.
